The dress is nice (at least the part we can see under the jacket). The jacket looks tacky to me, both fabric and colour, with the especially tacky addition of the bow. Overall, too gold for my taste.
I like her hairdo, though.

i really like the gold dress, really pretty!
however, even though i like the jacket with the white gown from the dinner early this year, i cant find it well-fitting with this gold dress, something's off!

The dress is beautiful, but the jacket is too golden and too shiny with it.

I have a feeling that Mary's make-up is getting more and more unflattering these days, is she trying too hard to cover up the signs of age? I think her face looks pretty harsh lately and sometimes not very natural

The jacket (which is horrid BTW) looks like it is a little small for her. I do wish she would not insist upon having all her clothing so skin tight. The jacket is starting to bunch/pull in the armpit area.

I think if any one of us has lost a close friend we wouldn't like the camera in our face so people can pick. Mary recently lost her lady's maid and by all accounts she is extremly upset by her sudden passing as are all the people that knew Tina.
So If Mary needs a little extra makeup to get through so be it, although if you look at other photos that are not posted on this board her makeup is lovely.

WOW! What happened here? Way too much gold. The dress looks nice (would need to see the dress itself), but why the golden tacky jacket (which should be thrown away very fast) with horrible bow and golden shoes and golden tights? All those make the outfit look cheap. Hard to save a pretty dress with such company . Was she trying for the Bond golden girl look or something? A huge miss.I wonder how blind felt the people looking at her in the light .

Agree about her make up, it's been very harsh lately. And I doubt it has anything to do with the passing of her Lady in Waiting, Mary's make up has already been this way before the Lady passed. It looks like Mary started using too much which in her case is a bad idea.

Agree, Mary always wears beautiful hair updos IMO. But I wish there were better pictures of her hair from behind. But I can't find any.

Almost always I would say. There is this weird alien updo at the Luxemburg wedding...
